Half-Life SDK Programming #2.4: Finding other entities
Woo! I managed to upload this month after all.
So, here I talk a little bit about finding other entities by targetname, and very briefly cover string_t.
The audio quality is a bit worse than usual, but, it's a miracle I recorded it anyway.

I've noticed that certain comments are being deleted right after posting (perhaps not by their respective authors), so I'd advise you to ask for help with HL SDK on my Discord server and on TWHL.
